Remember the famous quote by George Orwell: "All Tachinids are beautiful, but some are more beautiful than others" Pity we can't see the arista, it seems to be either Dexiini or Blondeliini and I don't think any Blondeliini has such a narrow vertex, therefore I go for Dexiini I think this is the male of Dinera carinifrons Theo |

Theo, Thanks. This fly was rather shy and I could only get one picture. Thanks again. Pierre Duhem |
